Introducing the Tandym Scheduling App: A Game-Changer for Healthcare Staffing

by Katelin Stuckey

Healthcare providers often juggle multiple jobs, shifts, and scheduling tools to manage their busy calendars. Internally, our Tandym team struggled with visibility into provider shifts and inconsistent tracking. Externally, providers had no simple way to see and manage their schedules, and requesting shifts was a tedious manual process. We knew this had to change. That’s why we launched the new Tandym Scheduling App: a mobile-first solution that solves these challenges and puts scheduling power in the hands of providers.

Addressing Key Challenges

• Lack of visibility and consistency. We found it hard to know at a glance who was booked for what shift. With the new app, providers can view their complete schedule in one place, eliminating confusion and manual tracking.
• Manual, clunky scheduling. Physicians and Advanced Practice Providers told us that booking extra shifts felt like a chore. Now, providers can input their availability, see all open shifts at facilities where they’re credentialed, and request assignments with a single tap.

This approach fits perfectly into Tandym’s vision: delivering a streamlined, intuitive platform that gives providers full visibility into their schedules, access to open shifts at affiliated hospitals, and the ability to request assignments, all in one seamless experience. It’s another step in our human-centered, technology-enabled journey.

Streamlined Scheduling for Providers

The Scheduling App gives healthcare professionals an intuitive dashboard on their phone. Providers see their full upcoming schedule and any new open shifts for their privileged departments, all in real time. Because everything updates instantly, a newly posted shift appears immediately, and interested providers can request it at once. This real-time flow speeds up the booking process dramatically, much like how our Catalyst^™ AI platform has accelerated hiring by turning hours into minutes.

Providers are extremely busy and on the move. By using this mobile app, they gain flexibility and control over their own schedules. Instead of juggling emails, phone calls, and spreadsheets, they have a one-stop scheduling tool: their next shift is always just a tap away. The app is designed to be user-friendly, so providers can spend less time managing logistics and more time focusing on patient care.

Benefits for Healthcare Facilities

Healthcare facilities benefit too. Staffing coordinators and managers face a complex puzzle every day, balancing staffing needs, credentials, and preferences across departments. The Tandym Scheduling Appcuts through this complexity. Now, because providers can see and request open shifts directly, facilities get much faster fill rates and far fewer scheduling errors. We also have a bulk-import feature to populate multiple shifts at once, saving our clients even more time and effort.

With everything updating in real time, managers have confidence that critical shifts won’t go unfilled. By giving providers the power to pick up shifts they actually want, we minimize last-minute scrambles and improve reliability for everyone on the healthcare team.

Tandym’s Technology Advantage

Tandym’s history is built on specialized solutions and innovation. As a leader in staffing and recruiting, we’ve invested in technology that solves real problems. Our Catalyst^™ platform demonstrates how decades of data and AI can dramatically accelerate hiring. Our AI career mentor ANDY similarly complements our recruiting team with friendly, personalized guidance. The Tandym Scheduling App is the next logical step in this trajectory: it enhances the human experience without replacing it, embodying our human-centered, technology-enabled approach.

Early Impact and Feedback

We’re only a month in, but the early signs are great. Providers tell us they love seeing available shifts in one place and grabbing opportunities on the fly. On the operations side, managers appreciate the reduced emails and texts. By consolidating everything in the app, we’ve already noticed improved fill rates and greater provider satisfaction.

What’s Next

Looking ahead, we plan to give our healthcare clients more access too. On our roadmap is a web-based interface where facilities can enter their own shifts and view schedules – all in a secure, controlled way. We’re still designing the best process, so clients have just the right level of visibility and control.

Above all, Tandym’s Scheduling App puts you in control. Real-time access to tailored shift opportunities and a flexible scheduling experience, all from the palm of your hand.
